Finite element modelling of the mechanism of deformation and failure in metallic thin-walled hollow spheres under dynamic compression

Recent interest in lightweight metallic hollow sphere foams for aerospace applications requires a better physical understanding of dynamic properties of single spheres. Finite element modelling supported by high rate experiments was developed to investigate the underlying deformation and failure mec...
